STORRS, Conn. (AP) (Dec. 7) -- Swin Cash scored 16 points as No. 1 Connecticut cruised to a 92-32 victory over Holy Cross on Thursday night.

Asjha Jones and Svetlana Abrosimova each had 13 points for UConn (6-0). Abrosimova also had a team-high six boards as UConn outrebounded the Crusaders 41-35.

The Huskies overwhelmed the Crusaders (4-5) from the start with smothering defense and a high-powered transition game.

Kristin Popovics had seven points to lead Holy Cross, which made 35 turnovers - the most by a UConn opponent this season.

The Huskies missed their opening shot - a 3-point attempt - then quickly raced out to a 24-2 lead with less than half the period gone. Five players scored in that run, including Abrosimova who keyed the spurt with a 3-pointer.

UConn didn't need any long-range help as most of the Huskies' points were uncontested layups made in transition. UConn had 28 points off the fast break and 44 from turnovers.

Jones had five of the Huskies' 27 steals in a game that was a sharp contrast to the defending national champs' last outing. UConn beat Miami 77-53 on Tuesday, but committed a season-high 24 turnovers.

Holy Cross shot 22 percent and were held scoreless for up to seven minutes during one stretch. By halftime, Holy Cross had used up all but one timeout.

Holy Cross scoring leader Jeanette Paukert was held to four points, 10 below her average.
